Description
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 provides that an employee has a right to a working environment free of racial harassment. On this appeal, we are presented with the assertion of this right in an uncommon context. Appellees, sixteen black and Hispanic correction officers, seek to enlist their employers aid in cleansing an atmosphere universally recognized as harsh and oft-times cruel-a prison facility. Acknowledging that racial slurs in prisons are often difficult to control, we nevertheless believe the Countys prior efforts must be augmented, and affirm the judgments below.
